Bears....always been behind the curve. Should have been looking ahead to replace him years ago. Typical Bears mentality....wait til they hit a brick wall then they fasten their seat belt. Cutler moves on next year. They will wait til then before they think about a QB. Trestman better be a genius.

Who will replace Urlacher? Oh that's right they are focusing on offense. No D just going to out score the other team .

Considering all of that, didn't they still offer him 2 million, which he turned down ?

I thought I read somewhere they offered 1 million and 1 million in incentives. Incentives probably were things he would never be able to accomplish. Management knew long time ago according to Urlacher they weren't going to try to make any deal no matter what the press releases said about wanting to keep him. They held out to see what they could get in free agency first. Once they spent the money he was totally expendable.

He has an incredible Football IQ and incredible instincts that kept him in the game this long......His physical tools have been deteriorating pretty fast.....He still gets to the right spots on the field.....He just can't seal the deal and make the play

Bears offered 2 million for one year. Urlacher felt "insulted". So they parted ways.

Truly sick ppl find solace in knowing that they're not the only ones who operate in such a manner. I mean, we're not a threat to society or anything but it seems like you and I think/behave like 12 y/o kids, at best.. Ah well "I yam what I yam" right

a good player,,,yes. a great player,,,i wouldnt say so. he could never stay healthy and i know its was sometimes out of his hands,,,,,i could name countless middle linebackers that were way better and he couldnt even hold their jock straps if he wanted to, just my opinion.
